Crisp Handling, Nice Sounding Engine —
albeit the Australian version i drive, i assume they are very similar cars, i have M3 wheels on mine so i think it tends to make steering heavy when parking and might put additional strain on the power steering pump which might lead to it wearing out prematurely, i have noticed they are much cheaper in the US (where i currently live) back home they are incredibly over priced and all options on the car are ridiculously expensive (3200 thousand for sat nav etc) but the equipment level seems to be fairly reasonable, sunroof, leather, dual zone climate control, nice little features such as you can choose whether you want the air that points on to your face to be hot or cold digital HDTV through the LCD (in aus anyway) not to mention a LCD screen screen that actually works in direct sunlight, nice driving position as long as you are not to tall, decent leg for rear passengers again head room might be an issue in the back if your over or near 6 foot like me over bumps i hit my head, and a decent boot. Even with the Larger wheels the ride in the car is still smooth and handling crisp, clean and complaint especially with the extra grip the wheels provide, the brakes are smooth and progressive and provide more than ample stopping power, ABS and Traction Control don't cut in to early, it seems to be reasonable fuel efficient (10 or so Litres per 100km city and highway combined) over all a very lovely car although that being said from other people who have driven/own them they seem to say that that don't have a soul and are lacking character which is a good way to describe how and how i felt after driving one, great car didn't miss a beat, just lacks soul.

Quick And Quite —
Handling is great, and power band is super smooth. It has a tons of features and options, and easy to work on and easy to maintain. Braking is excellent and shifts smooth. Nice quite ride. I recommend it to everyone looking for a sport sedan.

I Am A Huge Fan Of The Bmw 325i And I Would Highly Reccommend To Anybody! —
This vehicle is a smooth drive and is very proficient on gas mileage. For amenities, the car plays CD's, has a sunroof and heat warmers. Also, the windows are slightly tinted. Plenty of space in the trunk and ample amount of room for back seat passengers.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros:
This car drives extremely well in all weather conditions. It is also very good on gas mileage.

Cons:
The engine makes a little above average sound when it starts up- it has been thoroughly checked and is in an overall good condition.

Excellant Car, Would Buy Another. —
Excellant performance considering it is a diesel, acceleration very good, handling extremely smooth.
Appearance of new body style , just like a woman, curves in the right places.
Considering its 6 years old she does 48.7 MPG.
Maintenance costs from BMW absolutely stupid money. Buy Haynes manual and do any repairs services yourself.
Fun factor, lovelly to drive.

It's The Honda Accord Of Our AgeBy Aaron

It's a perfectly reasonable car. Goes fast when you want it too, uses less gas when you want that. Back seat is big enough so the kids don't complain. Just wish it were a bit less bland. I used to...
